Patriotic Jewel Flowers c. 1940s

"Patriotic Jewel Flowers" is a painting by American artist Rolf Armstrong, a prominent figure in the genre of illustration art. The painting depicts a beautiful young woman, perhaps a model, wearing a scarf in the colors of the American flag, symbolizing patriotism. The background features sailing boats on water, adding to the imagery of freedom and liberty. This artwork likely dates back to the 1940s, a time when American illustration flourished during the war era, often serving as a source of morale. The soft pastel-like colors and the romanticized portrayal of the woman are characteristic of Armstrong's style.
